Your website claims there are '50 more police officers, 4 more PCSOs and 52 more Special Constables' in Barnet. Are you worried that this is misleading given that you cut 40 local police officers from Barnet's police service between March 2010 and December 2011 and plan to cut numbers further?

Thank you for your answer to question 128/2012 (Social Rent 1). You replied that you will deliver 20,000 social rented homes during the 2011-15 funding round. However, we know that these homes are homes that were committed to but not finished during the 2008-11 funding round. You were Chair of the London region HCA when the contracts for the 2011-15 funding round were agreed. Why, in this role, did you decide to not fund any new conventional social rented housing?
